The Costa Blanca is the tourist name given to the area of the Mediterranean coast of the province of Alicante. This region is accessible through two airports: Alicante and Valencia.
Dynamic cities with modern tourist infrastructures, Mediterranean villages where time seems suspended, long beaches of golden sand, with calm and transparent waters and a coastline with luxuriant vegetation formed of impressive cliffs and dream coves.

The Costa Blanca is a popular tourist destination. The large landscape, marked by orange and almond trees, make this area unique.

The Costa Blanca offers a range of leisure, sports and a mild Mediterranean climate all year round.
Not far from the coast, salt marshes and their particular natural environment fascinate, as do the mountain ranges and the beautiful forests.
In this region there are about 1,300,000 inhabitants, nearly 30% of whom are foreign residents, and also welcomes nearly 5 million tourists per year.
Benidorm Is the tourist capital. Its strategic location gives it a pleasant microclimate all year round.

Benitachell is the perfect place to escape the crowds and noise. The beauty of its coast and the tranquility of its beautiful coves are a delight for nature lovers.
In Calpe, the Peñón of Ifach, one of the emblems of the Costa Blanca, is an enormous 332 meter high rock overlooking the sea and dominating the landscape of this singular city.

Denia offers a very varied coastline. In the south, from the wild coves to the crystal clear waters and to the north of the city and the marina, stretch long sandy beaches.
Javea is a true paradise thanks to its natural charm and its famous road of the watchtowers. It surprises by its 15 balconies which allow to take advantage of the impregnable views on the coast with the abundant vegetation.
Moraira, built along a beautiful bay, is a pleasant Mediterranean town that charms as much for its fishing port as for the prestigious Club Nautique de Moraira, considered as one of the best marinas of the Valencian Community.
Torrevieja is one of the most popular and active cities. In the middle of lush nature and palm trees, small coves follow the magnificent endless beaches and the extraordinary landscape of the salt marshes.
Altea is known for enclosing one of the prettiest old towns in the Mediterranean. The magic of this city has for years attracted artists and craftsmen from all over the world, as well as nature lovers inspired by the unparalleled beauty of its coastline.


Pine-covered mountains, almond fields, olive groves, orange trees and many splendid views are always a discovery.
Many hiking trails lead to magnificent views.
By the World Health Organization (WHO), the Costa Blanca is one of the best climates on the planet.

The fish and shellfish of the bay with the fruits and vegetables of the vegetable plains, accompanied by the prestigious wines of the region make up the nucleus of a healthy and natural gastronomy.
Rice, prepared in different ways, is the most famous dish of Alicante cuisine (more than 300 different methods of preparation):
– arroz a banda (rice cooked from a fish broth)
– arroz amb fesols i naps (with beans and turnips)
– arros con costra (rice in crust)
You can also prepare rice with squid and tuna, chicken and lean pork, with squid and tender garlic, or with tuna and pink shrimp.
Seafood and cured meats are on the menu of seaside restaurants: seabream, coarse salt bar, or shellfish sprinkled with lemon, fresh red mullet or whiting.
In the mountainous regions, rice fills the “olleta”, a typical dish made up of pork, sausages and sausages, squash, turnips and beans. The hinterland offers excellent meat dishes: chops and leg of lamb, rabbit with garlic coulis and tomato, as well as charcuterie.
Turrones (nougats) and Jijona ice cream, fresh or dried grapes, dates and almond tarts are the delicious desserts of Alicante’s gastronomy.
The best known dish of Spanish cuisine was born in the 18th century in the Horta de Valencia. The peasants of the region accommodated in their own way the rice of the lagoon near the Albufera.
Sangria is undoubtedly the most famous Spanish drink in the world. It is a punch of red wine born in the 15th century. The mixture quickly became popular and quickly crossed borders.
